I am dedicated to working with people who want to get at the roots of their emotional distress and personal suffering. Building a collaborative relationship in therapy is the single most important factor in therapeutic success. This relationship will be the keystone for facilitating your personal growth and understanding of yourself not just intellectually, but also emotionally. Over time, an internalized healing space forms where you can recover access to parts of your true self. Speaking freely without unnecessary self-censorship may be simple, but it is not easy. I encourage you to try.

I’m excited about helping people become aware of how they create barriers to authentic human contact in their relationships and helping to transform those that don’t serve them in a healthy way.

I love to work with people who are willing to learn to take personal responsibility in how they make contact in their relationships.

I love to work with people who want to really engage with their own growth.

Working experientially & somatically with mindfulness helps individual's access issues directly. A client's insight is worth a thousand words! I facilitate emotional well-being regarding personal and relational difficulties, grief, codependence, partners coping with sexual addiction, betrayal, divorce, sex, trauma, developmental wounds, anxiety, depression, self-esteem and self-image issues. Mindfulness in therapy gently reveals strengths as well as undesirable behaviors. In a safe, non-judgmental environment, individuals are invited to explore issues that often reside beneath consciousness. By becoming curious about who we are, we begin to accept our humanity in order to heal. Methods include: Contemplative Psychology, Hakomi Experiential, Brainspotting Trauma, Gestalt, Person-Centered, Gestalt, TA, & Brief Therapy.
